"umask 022" means two things:

644 for files
755 for folders

Simply.

Try umask 011...

Subject: [Solaris-Users] question about umask to allow execute on a file.


A user asked me how to setup his account so that the default permissions
were 755.  Well I tried different permissions and found that for files I
could never set the execute bit on a file using a umask 022 gave me 644 not
755.  

Does anyone know of a way to set the default so the it allows setting the
execute bit on a file.

Thanks
Joan
